Ep. 180 Why Orange Theory Makes You Fat

Vanessa G Fitcast

Based on the title of this episode, you’re probably coming into this already either angry or curious…

If you’re angry, I just ask that you stay open minded and hear me out….

I’m not entirely against Orange Theory.

I tried Orange Theory back in the day and I loved it!

But, here’s the thing….

If you aren’t a resilient bodied 18 year old, and you already live a high-stress lifestyle:

-work a full time job

-wake up at the crack of dawn to exercise

-have numerous people you’re responsible for

-go 100 miles an hour most days…..

This way of training will most likely backfire.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about the stress that these high intensity classes are doing to our bodies, why cardio is not the fat burning modality it's been rumored to be, why little to no recovery time with these workouts will keep you stuck, and more!
